"Christian art today should be twentieth-century art. Art changes. Language changes. The preacher's preaching today must be twentieth-century language communication, or there will be an obstacle to being understood. And if a Christian's art is not twentieth-century art, it is an obstacle to his being heard. It makes him different in a way in which there is no necessity for difference....Yet ... we must not be misled or naive in thinking that various styles have no relation whatsoever to the content or message of the work of art. Styles themselves are developed as symbol systems or vehicles for certain world views or messages."


Francis Schaeffer, Art and the Bible
